ABSTRACT
The expression ‘A change is as good as a rest’ is sometimes abused, and used as an excuse. And of course, if the change means you’re going to jail instead of being a member of Parliament, then you have to talk fast to bring conviction to the idea. At the same time, I’m convinced that some tired and jaded teachers, the ones who start to think of retiring early, could be retained in the profession if only they were offered something different and creative to do, even just for a short time.
